Morris Minor Owners Club

Over winter I'll go around the entire car touching in all the little bits, I want to remove things like the door strikers and clean them off, everything has been painted over in the past.

Should look ok with the piping, I've lost the rolled edge but the panels aren't available anyway, other side to finish then I ca...

Thanks mate

I'll fix a few more as time goes by.

Bootlid isn't brilliant so I might swap that in future bit it's ok for now.

I've took all the stainless kick plates off ready to go crazy with the waxoyl!

I'm still having upload issues, I'm extracting zip files to get them!

She hasn't got any wings on yet but the boot lid is on, I'm just filling and sanding the rear arches where the doors open, then I'll re black the inner arches. Just the rear wings to sort and fit the back bumper then.

I'll try and upload the main pics tomorrow to make the thread make sense if I can.

I'm better at welding than technology stuff and my welding ain't great!

I have but I'll need to re host some of the main ones, a task for a rainy day!

Lovely

And old back end with a roof , some back doors and the sides filled in would make a lovely little garden store!

Go for it, as long as you build up the layers slowly they don't run like the little rattle cans from a typical motor factors used to.

It was coffee actually :P A well earned one I reckon, :lol: I think cans can be ok if they are from the proper paint places, it's just their regular stuff rammed in a can with the hardner, less mess too. I had 4 cans made up, I've used about half a can on the rear bumper valance and a can and a half...

Got the rear end painted, colour match looks good, I had to get a tint added to the factory Sage using one of my wings as the guinea pig. Door openings still to do and a good wet sand and polish, not bad for rattle cans though :) http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/af100/stingraypete/Mobile%20Uploads...
